System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.17763 64 Bits
Graphics card: Radeon Pro 580 ATI Technologies Inc. 4.5.13521 Core Profile Context 24.20.11016.9001

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.81 (sub 15), branch: master, commit date: 2019-10-23 04:02, hash: b9dd87f0cb
Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
When linking a blend file and looking for Collections using File/Link... in the browser window that opens:

  1. by default collections, images and lights are deselected in the Filter Blender IDs list.
  2. If you turn off Filter Blender IDs you still can't see Collections for the blend file.

So to see collections you have to have Filter Blender IDs on and then expand the view and then Shift select Collections.

I have assumed this is a bug, didn't see anything related to it in a search.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Reset to Factory settings.
File, link...
Browse to a blend file with collections
See the above description.

[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]

Also worth noting that when shift clicking on the Filter tab -> Blender ID's -> collections button, the button won't become deselected no matter how many times you shift click.
BUT, if you go to Advanced Filters and shift click on Collections, and then go back to Filter tab on the right, now the collections button will become deselected when shift clicking
and will sync with the Advanced Filters.
